Can you believe that Fall is right around the corner? Feels like summer just flew
by. As the colder weather approaches, now is a great time to prepare your
skincare routine for the transition. Here are a few of my top tips to keep your skin healthy as we step into fall:
- Book your intensive treatments. Treatments like lasers and microneedling are best done in the fall and winter months when sun exposure is at a minimum. These treatments can leave your skin more sensitive to the sun. Wondering which treatments are best for you? Book a skin consultation and we can find the best treatment that fits the needs of your skin.
- Find a body oil you love. The skin on your body feels the impact of the colder temps and windier conditions as well. Find a body lotion or oil you love and get into the habit of slathering it on post-shower.
- Pull out the humidifier. Using a humidifier to keep them warm and moist can keep your skin happy during the cooler months. Cold air can dry out the skin which may lead to a weaker moisture barrier.
- Use a thicker moisturizer. Speaking of moisture and keeping your moisture
barrier happy by shelving your oil-free lotion in exchange for one with a heavier formula.
- Reduce physical and chemical exfoliation. With lower temps comes a break from the constant sweating (finally!). Because of this, you may want to cut back on your exfoliating products.
- Increase hydrating ingredients. Think ceramides and hyaluronic acids! Time to get some hydrating serums ready!
Just a few of the tools we use to get your O"s fuzz free! Wax comes in all shapes and colors. From hard wax blocks, and hard wax beads all the way to soft wax. We'll use the right wax for you and your wax!
Skincare isn't just for the girls... it's for the guys too! Luckily we are living in a time where the stigma around men's skincare is
slowly melting away. Yaay!
Send this graphic to the man in your life who is struggling with their skincare.
Here are our top tips for men's skincare:
- SPF every day.
- Bar soap is not for your face!
- Exfoliate for a closer shave. This will also brighten your complexion and reduce the chance for acne to form.
- Moisturize in the am/pm.
- Be gentle with your skin. No need to go ham on your face when
you are washing it.
- Check your skin regularly especially if you have a beard. Take note of any moles and if they are changing go to your doctor to have them looked at.
You know what they say! You can't have 10/10 makeup if your skincare game is a 2 ✨
Here are a few of my fav skincare ingredients that will get your
skin prepped and ready for your makeup routine.
Hyaluronic acid = plump and hydrated skin
Niacinamide = improved skin tone and texture
Peptides = support the moisture barrier
BHA/AHA = sloughs off dead skin cells
Vitamin C= brightens complexion
Lactic acid = helps with uneven texture and tone

Increased oiliness, more frequent breakouts, and even dryness
and sensitive skin can be signs of a hormone imbalance. The
state of your skin is so closely linked with your hormones it's
often a good idea to get your hormones checked if you see a
sudden change in your skin.
Here are a few signs outside of your skin that might indicate a
hormone imbalance:
- Sudden weight loss or steady weight gain.
- Irregular menstrual cycles
- Fatigue
- Low libido
- Trouble concentrating
- Haiross
- Irritability
- Hot flashes and night sweats
🚩Always talk to your doctor before self-diagnosing.🚩
